It’s another day, another controversy for Kim Kardashian, as her latest Skims campaign has fans fired up.
On Friday, the mom of four shared photos of herself modeling an all-white ensemble from her Skims collaborations with Dolce & Gabbana.
The AHS actress wore a white unlined balconette bra, matching jersey boxer shorts, and added a touch of D&G with white lace leggings underneath her boxers.
However, the problem was her accessories: rosary beads and a cross necklace.

Kim Kardashian Slammed for Rocking Rosary Beads in New Skims Campaign
While her abs were looking fantastic, fans weren’t impressed with the reality star making “a mockery” of the religious piece.
“It is disrespectful. A rosary is not an accessory.”
“Rosary beads are meant for saying prayers, not to decorate your body. Rosary beads are not jewelry. This is extremely disrespectful. It was disrespectful when Madonna did it also.”
“Lady, you have young daughters. Seriously. What kind of example are you setting for them? We all know you look good. Isn’t it enough already?”
“Madonna popularized it in the 80s. Rosaries are NOT jewelry. And it’s offensive to us Catholics when it is worn as such.”
“She’s so desperate for any type of attention.”
Kim Kardashian Launches Collab With Dolce And Gabbana For Skims
Dolce & Gabbana have incorporated numerous symbols, accessories, and prints inspired by religion, particularly Catholicism. Their shared Italian Catholic upbringing could attribute to the influence on their creative choice to emulate intricate mosaics found in churches and to draw inspiration from historical and religious imagery.
Back in 2013, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana presented a golden collection called “Tailored Mosaic.” The line was inspired by the Cathedral of Monreale.
Kim’s other looks for the collab included a leopard-print set, bodysuits, corsets, and, of course, accessories from D&G.
This time, Kim graciously allowed her sister Kourtney Kardashian to star in the campaign, following their feud over Kim’s previous collaboration with the Italian fashion house.
